PROJECT SITE PLAN FOR PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AREA
The development concept for the area strives to preserve the natural environment and create a community
that is compatible with the natural terrain. A large portion of Fallon Crossing, 46..8 acres or (69% of the
property), will be permanently designated and preserved in perpetuity as open space. Most of this area is
steep slope and visually sensitive ridgelines. To minimize visual impacts, most of the residential
development would be tucked behind the ridgeline visible from Fallon Road. The proposed open space
configuration would enhance the natural environment by preserving hillsides, creek corridors, wildlife
habitat, and stream restoration.
Tassajara Road and Fallon Road have been identified in the City's General Plan as Scenic Corridors. The
policies related to Scenic Corridors require preservation of views of scenic ridgelines, knolls, and
backdrops from both of these roads. Grading and retaining walls will be required for interior roads,
proper drainage, private park and open space, and suitable building pads while taking into consideration
the hilly terrain. The proposed hillside grading will incorporate contours blended with the natural
topography to avoid, as much as possible, excessive cuts and fills. Only..8 acres of the 19.5 acres of
single-family development will have slopes in excess of 30%. However, other remedial hillside grading
may be required to extend beyond the proposed on~site development envelope for the purpose of suitable
slope ratios, slide repair and correct soil conditions.. Also, some off-site grading of an existing hillside on
the property south of the project site will be required to meet the slope ratio standards of the Eastern
Dublin Specific Plan with these proposed improvements, the ridgeline knoll views will be preserved.
The proposed plan includes a private linear park within the northern path of the residential development
and along the creek corridor at the base of the slope. This linear trail also extends along the east fork of
the unnamed tributary of Tassajara Creek.. The PD-Planned Development zoning established the Private

3 ArchItectural DeSIgn Standards
The reSidentIal architecture theme for thiS Stage 2 Development Plan has been deSigned m the style
representmg French hIllSide theme AU archltecturdl elements will be reqUIred to be articulated on all
elevatIOns of each buIldll1g
Each of the architectural stylcs mclude a vanety of textures, colors and matendls The color schcmes are
mtended to complement the elevation styles, roof types, and accent matenals mcludll1g roof and extenor
Page 7 of 14
materials; window frames and mullions; trims; railings; metaC stone, and wooden elements; and other
details. The color schemes combined with the variety of elevation styles and the floor plans contribute to
an integrated street scene.
The architectural styles proposed for this project are described as follows..
English Country (A) - The English Country style features
steep gable roofs, stucco exterior finish, narrow vertical
elements, and both real and simulated wooden accents.
Lower railings and posts are wooden while upper rails are
metal. Windows are flanked by box panel shutters. Box
bay windows are capped with metal seam roof where gable
ends are accented with louvered vents and board and
batten.
English (B) - The English style proposed for the
Fallon Crossing project provides a variety of
materials and elements used to accent the stucco-
finish exterior including stone veneer and brick
borders along sills and headers. Roofs are steep
gables or gablelhip combinations with dormer
windows above, bay windows below, and wooden
- shiplap accents in the gable ends along with vertical
louvered vents. Other vertical elements include
picket shutters and wooden porch posts. A precast
keystone entry accent is applied to certain plans.
French (D) - This style is characterized by a steep gable
roof, a second story balcony, gabled dormer windows,
and shiplap accents in the gable ends. Exterior finishes
are primarily stucco with partial facades of brick veneer.

French Count!',' ee) - French Country style is
typified by stucco exterior, brick accents, and
shed-roofed dormers on a steep-pitched gable
roof. Lower bay windows are shaded with metal
seam roofing in a faux verdigris finish. As with
the English Country style, gable ends are
accented with board and batten and vertical
louvered vents.
,.
Normandy (E) - In addition to the English style, the
Normandy style incorporates flat concrete tile roofs, S-tiles
along the ridges as an accent and ribs of a typically hip roof
Brick veneer and faux cross or vertical cut timbers embellish
the stucco exterior finish. Builtwout foam bands delineate the
first and second stories, and shallow box bay windows
project from the upper floors.
As a part of the overall architectural design there are a number of required elements that should be
installed with convenience and safety in mind, such as entry lighting, house addresses, and mailboxes..
Homeowners Association rules or standards in the City's Zoning Ordinance would be applicable to other
elements and potential nuisance items such as awnings, antennas, satellite dishes, trash receptacles, and
storage structures. Additionally, this project shall conform to the Universal Design Standards in the City
of Dublin Municipal Code Chapter 7..90.
4. Traffic Circulation and Streetscape Standards
Tassajara Road is currently a two-lane road extending from Dublin Ranch' over the hills and across into
Contra Costa County. The Eastern Dublin Specific Plan anticipates that Tassajara Road eventually would
be expanded to six lanes.. Fallon Road, proposed as a thoroughfare, ends at Tassajara Road as a four way
intersection at the entrance to the Fallon Crossing development near the southwest comer of the project
site. Fallon Road is nearing completion as the Silvera/Pinn Brothers project to the southeast is being
developed. Vehicular and pedestrian access to Fallon Crossing will be from this intersection. Tassajara
Road frontage improvements and completion of the Tassajara Road/Fallon Road intersection, including
traffic signal modification, were conditions of approval for this project applied by the Planning
Commission through it's approval of the Site Development Review and Vesting Tentative Tract Map.
Access to the Fallon Crossing project would be from Street "'A' at the intersection of Tassajara Road and
Fallon Road.. Just past the entry, Street "A" transitions to Street "B" which loops through the project and
connects to a street within Silvera Ranch to the southeast as a secondary access point. Three cul-de-sacs
take access to Street "B;" these are shown on the site plan as Courts "C," "D," and "E." These would be
public streets.. The end of cach cui-dc-sac connects to a trail system through the community vineyard.
Proposed public street sections arc comparable and similar to those already approved or built in other
areas of the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area. Additional circulation elements within the project will
include three short motor courts, essentially functioning as private streets. For safety and maintenance
purposes, a IS-foot wide emergency vehicle and maintenance road surrounds the perimeter of the
developed area and separates it from the natural areas. Street bulb outs are used at comers and median
islands are used at right angle turns to slow traffic and provide traffic calming measures.
Community elements and landscape design components will create and enhance the identity and character
of this neighborhood. Community elements are situated primarily within the public right-of-way and
other public spaces throughout the project. They include community walls, theme walls, sculptured seat
walls, accent paving, and street furnishings such as mailboxes, benches, and arbors..
In addition to the trailhead tower and park elements, the project entry is identified by a landscaped median
and circular fountain reminiscent of a roundabout. The primary function of the median is to separate
Page 9 of 14
incoming from outgoing traffic while providing a visually distinguishing landmark for this project.
Management and maintenance of the common landscaped areas will generally be the responsibility of the

s. Landscape and Open Space Standards
As stated above, open space and preservation represents a significant theme of the Fallon Crossing
project. The proposed project will maintain approximately 52 acres of open space including: a) the
private creekside linear park (including the private arts park), b) the community vineyard, c) the
neighborhood trail system, including the systems of mini-parks and greenbelts, d) Tassajara Road
landscaped setbacks, and e) open space preserve. The majority of the open space preservation is located
on the hillside slopes and in the natural floodwater drainage system, including the proposed water quality
ponds and detention basin.

OPEN SPACE MAP
Hillside and Creekbed Conservation - These two areas comprise 46..8 acres of native hillside grassland in
the northerly and easterly portions of the project site and the east fork tributary of Tassajara Creek along
the westerly boundary of the project site. These areas are represented by Parcels A and H, respectively, on
both the Tentative Tract Map (Attaclunent 2, book 2 of2, "Civic Drawings" tab, page 8) and on the Open
Space Ownership and Maintenance Responsibilities exhibit (Attachment 2, book 2 of2, "Civic Drawings"
tab, page 7). The open space corridor will maintain the "visually sensitive ridge lands" in accordance with
the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. Preservation of the western hillsides also contributes to the scenic
corridor status of Tassajara Road.
The east fork tributary of Tassajara Creek is the natural course for storm water runoff. The creek bank
and corridor will be subject to a creek bank restoration and stabilization plan. A 100-foot setback from
the top-of-bank on the east fork of Tassajara Creek has been incorporated into the design to protect
wildlife habitat from human disturbance and protect development from major flood events. The two man-
made retention ponds are located within each of these preservation areas and will be retained in their
existing condition and in accordance with the habitat preservation mitigation measures previously

The pnmary dlscus::'lOn pomts focused on the amount of parkmg m proximity to the duct UnIts
Ultlmately the Plannmg Commtsslon requested Staff to work with the developer to prOVide a few more
parkmg stalls m closer proximity to the llllltS m questIOn which would be along Street B" The Plannmg
CommiSSIOn also discussed the amount of open space, the vmeYdrd arca and the GHAD and expressed
concern regardmg the HOA cost of mamtammg these areas and the Impact such costs wuld have on the
affordabIllty' of both the mcluslOnary umts and the market rate umts
The Planlllng CommlsslOn unalllmously voted to recommend to the City Council approval of the
Ordmance estabhshmg the Stage 2 Development Plan (Attdchment 5, Plannmg CommiSSIOn ResolutlOn

Page 12 of 14
Review and the Vesting Tentative Tract Map (See Attachment 6, Planning Commission Resolution 07-59,
November 13,2007).
Inclusionary Zoning/Affordable Housing:
The project is required to comply with the City's Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance for affordable housing.
This provision requires new residential projects to include 12..5% of the units within the new residential
project as affordable.. Based on the total number of units, 13.25 units would be required to meet the
affordability standards.. The Ordinance also allows for the payment of in~Iieu fees of up to 40% of the
required affordable units.. The Fallon Crossing project proposes to provide the eight (8) paired or duet
units on Lots 19, 20, 33, 34, 52, 53, 63 & 64 as affordable units. These units represent 67% of the
affordable housing obligation while the remainder would be covered by the payment of an in~lieu fee and
is included as a Condition of Approval of the project. The affordable housing component will be
addressed in a separate affordable housing agreement prior to recordation of the final subdivision map..
The Development Standards for these units are included in the Stage 2 Planned Development (see Page 4
of Attachment 1).
Public Art:
The proposed project is subject to compliance with the City's Pllblic Art
Ordinance. The Ordinance requires the Applicant's contribution to be ..5%
-. of the aggregate value of the home construction to be determined and
calculated by the City's Building Official. This calculation would be made
in conjunction with the Site Development Review (See Condition No.6,
Attachment No.6) for the public art as a part of the project. The value of
the public art is calculated at $166,176.35. The FaUan Crossing project
proposes to integrate an Arts Park area as a supplemental part of the
neighborhood linear park along the westerly boundary. The Arts Park
would be located at the north end of the park. The Preliminary Landscape Plan delineates this area. In
addition to landscaping, the Arts Park portion would include the design, construction, and installation of a
commissioned sculpture or sculptures. The Public Arts Park portion would be owned and maintained by
the HOA subject to a public access overlay easement. A determination on the art to be provided will be
finalized as a cooperative team approach between the City of Dublin Parks and Community Services
Department, the project landscape architect and the artistes) at a future date.
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT:
As part of the annexation of the land into the City of Dublin, the Applicant entered into a pre-annexation
agreement with the City of Dublin.. The Pre-Annexation Agreement covered the advance, payment, or
reimbursement of funding for the area. That agreement will serve as the framework for the required
Development Agreement to follow between the City and the Applicant/Developer as an implementation
measure and is required by the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan. The Development Agreement will be based
on the standard form prepared by the City Attorney and adopted by the City Council for projects located
within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area.. The proposed Development Agreement between the
Applicant and the City will be presented to the Planning Commission and City Council for
recommendation at a later date..
